Pragmatic Play, a software developer for online casinos, has launched its latest video slot, The Dog House Megaways. The game features a return to player (RTP) rate of 96.55% and boasts high volatility.
The slot incorporates the popular Megaways mechanic, allowing for up to 117,649 ways to create winning combinations. High-paying symbols include a bone, a collar, and four different breeds of dogs. The wild symbol is represented by a doghouse, which can substitute for all symbols except the scatter, depicted as a paw print.
Landing three or more scatter symbols triggers a bonus round, where players can choose between two free spins options: Sticky Wilds Free Spins or Raining Wilds Free Spins. The Sticky Wilds option offers between 7 to 20 free spins with "sticky" wilds, while the Raining Wilds option provides 15 to 30 bonus spins, each featuring random wild symbols. The number of free spins awarded depends on the number of scatter symbols that activated the bonus round.
Players also have the option to purchase the bonus feature for a cost equivalent to 100 times their bet. The maximum win during the free spins with sticky wilds can reach an impressive x12,305.
The Megaways feature continues to gain popularity among various providers. At the end of July, Red Tiger announced the release of its own dynamic slot, Gonzo’s Quest Megaways, further expanding the appeal of this innovative gameplay mechanic.
